Hmm. That sounds like something a negative person would say.

[vipmix]

Is it?

[listen the negative nancy is neku? joshua is clearly too cheery to be negative???]

[seaclipsed]

It is. It sounds like Zuko.

[vipmix]

[lmao]

Is he your go-to for negativity?

[seaclipsed]

I mean, you have met him, right?

[vipmix]

[oh my god hes dying]

He is grumpy. I'd have thought in a war like that, you'd know someone more negative, though.

[seaclipsed]

I won't say I haven't, but...

[ she pauses, wondering how to word this ]

He's definitely calmed down a little.

[vipmix]

... That's him calmer?

[fascinating.]

[seaclipsed]

Oh, definitely. He doesn't attack on sight anymore.

[vipmix]

Wow. He used to be that aggressive and you kept him when he switched sides? I'm surprised.

[joshua "literally keeps sho around because its funny" kiryu has no room to talk about this]

[seaclipsed]

Oh... uh...

[ coughs ]

[vipmix]

Now that's a telling reaction. Held a grudge, didn't you?

[seaclipsed]

He deserved it.

[ ... ]

Mostly. It... was complicated, and we're good now.

[vipmix]

You don't have to justify yourself to me, you realize? It's not like you need to like him as a person to work with him if your goals align.

[seaclipsed]

I do like him as a person!

[ now anyway lmao ]

I'm not too big on working with people that I hate in any circumstance though.

[vipmix]

[he laughs at her defense but doesn't linger on it, shrugging]

No one likes doing it, but sometimes it's necessary, that's all I was trying to say.

[seaclipsed]

I guess. Although I don't really see people putting too much trust here in someone like that.

[vipmix]

I didn't say anything about trust.

[seaclipsed]

So. Likablity has nothing to do with trust.
